Foot on the pedal, finger on the shutter release. Breathing in scents of Kearny and Elizabeth (mustard gas and roses, as Kurt Vonnegut Jr. would say) on a hazy July morning. On the way to work. 31 July 2007.

This graveyard seems to be split into two distinct areas with a definitive division line between front and back, the back portion being very poorly kept. Many of the overgrown and obscured graves back there have markings that are completely eroded while others that appear MUCH older are perfectly legible. 29 July 2007.

Double-sided gravestone of Sarah Jane Terrell (died at 16 years in 1854) and Mary Ann Terrell (died at 19 years in 1852). Overgrown and unkempt back portion of Mt. Bethel Meeting House Cemetery. King George Road. Warren, NJ. 29 July 2007.

I've walked under it thousands of times, yet never shot a picture of it before today. Closed and gutted years ago, but the finger still points... however at a gay bar called "The Cage". Exit the ghost of Sinatra, very unthrilled. Hoboken, NJ. July 2007.
